Who were the leaders of war during the Korean war?

Truman limited the war to the Korean peninsula, MacArthur had encouraged widening the war to hit Chinese bases in Manchuria. Khruschev and Chairman Mao made a mistake by boycotting the UN permitting the US to obtain a UN mandate for supporting South Korea. Overall, the Communists were not permitted to absorb South Korea and in response the Chinese prevented the US from absorbing North Korea into South Korea. Commander of all Chinese Communist forces was Peng Dehuai who held the position from the start to the end of the war.

What type of military does North Korea have?

In pure numbers, North Korea's military looks formidable, much larger than the more affluent South in both personnel and equipment. The North's 1.2 million soldiers face off against 640,000 South Korean troops who are backed up by 26,000 U.S. personnel stationed in the country. However, Pyongyang's capabilities are not what the figures would suggest. Impoverished North Korea has all but abandoned running a conventional military that can engage in sustained battle because of scarce resources and has instead focused on nuclear weapons and ballistic missile technology, experts said. "A conventional military is very costly, and overwhelmingly so for North Korea. It quickly becomes a money fight and North Korea cannot win that," said Shin In-kyun, head of the Korea Defence Network, an alliance of defence experts based in Seoul. While North Korea does not presently possess the fire power to hit the USA with any kind of nuclear threat, the range of their military might and fire power does threaten South Korea and Japan. Japan, separated by less than 1,000 km (625 miles) of water and a frequent target of North Korea's ire, is also in easy range of Pyongyang's short- and mid-range missiles. North Korea has also shown it has submarine capabilities. The North's air force has more than 820 fighter jets, according to South Korea's Defence Ministry, but it does not have enough fuel to fly sorties or conduct needed drills to maintain combat effectiveness. South Korea has 460 jets. North Korea has 4,200 tanks, according to South Korea, although Seoul's 2,400 are more modern and better maintained.
